Colorado's county clerks are encouraging voters who haven't already mailed back their completed ballots to drop them off in person before 7 p.m. Tuesday, Primary Election Day.

The Boulder County Clerk and Recorder's Office has several ballot drop-off locations that people can visit from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Monday, and from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday.

Boulder County's drop-off sites include: the county clerk's Boulder headquarters, 1750 33rd St., which will have both drive-by and walk-in drop-off locations; a drive-by ballot drop-off at the Lafayette Library, 775 W. Baseline Road; a Longmont drive-by drop-off on the east side of the 500 block of Terry Street; a walk-in drop-off at the Longmont city clerk's office at 350 Kimbark St.; a drive-by location at Louisville's Steinbaugh Pavilion, 824 Front St.; and the Nederland Community Center at 750 North Highway 72.

A walk-in drop-off center also is available inside the Boulder County Courthouse, 1325 Pearl St., and will be open until 4:30 p.m. Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Monday, and 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday.

Information about additional Boulder County polling and service center locations and hours is available online at BoulderCountyVotes.org.

Southwest Weld County voters can visit the voter service and polling center at the Weld County Clerk and Recorder's Southwest Weld office, 4209 Weld County Road 24 ½ , east of Longmont, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, Saturday, Monday and Tuesday. That county also will be operating a drop-off location for the Erie area's Weld County voters at 645 Holbrook from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday-Tuesday.

Weld County voters can get locations and hours of other voter service centers and drop-off locations online, through an elections link on that county government's home page, co.weld.co.us.
